BACKGROUND

1. Field

The following description relates to a semiconductor device.

2. Description of Related Art

In a double diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor (DMOS) transistor, a channel of a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor mainly used as a semiconductor device for high voltage is usually formed horizontally to a substrate surface. However, recently, according to a reduction of design approach for semiconductor devices, a trench MOS transistor, such as a MOS transistor for high voltage that has a vertical channel that is easily high integrated, has come into the spotlight. Briefly considering the structure of a trench MOS transistor, in a trench MOS transistor a drain is arranged at a back side of a substrate; a source is arranged on a front side of a substrate; a gate is arranged inside a trench which is indented into the substrate surface; and a current flows up and down along a side wall of the trench, in the substrate.

FIG. 1 illustrates a plan view of an active region and an edge region according to a conventional semiconductor device, and FIG. 2 illustrates a sectional view taken on line A-B of FIG. 1.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a semiconductor is divided into an active region (X) and an edge region (Y). The active region (X) includes a trench 100 and a trench transistor cell 101-1 having contacts 101 inside an active region. The edge region (Y) includes a contact pattern configured to transfer a voltage to an electrode. As shown in FIG. 2, a first insulating film 210 is formed on a substrate 200. A shield structure 220 is formed on the first insulating film 210. A second insulating film 230, a gate structure 240, and a third insulating film 250 are all formed on the upper surface of the substrate. Contact holes 231, 251 are formed in the second insulating film 230 and in the third insulating film 250 respectively.

With respect to the edge region (Y), laminations of the shield structure 220 and the gate structure 240 are unavoidable, because it is necessary to manufacture these structures in successive, stacked layers. However, the wider the stacked extent is, the more easily the gate-to-source current (IGSS) characteristic, such as leakage current of gate/source or gate/drain for the transistor is decreased. Therefore, aspects of semiconductor performance are affected.

Also, due to the above-described stacked structure, absolute generation of high differences in the structure of the semiconductor device is unavoidable. For this reason, there are defects of a defocus in the photo process and defects of a passivation in the etch process.

As illustrated in FIGS. 3 to 6, according to an example, there is provided a semiconductor device comprising: a substrate 300 which includes a trench 301, a first insulating film 310 that is formed at a bottom and a side wall of the trench 301, a first electrode 320 that is arranged at a bottom region of the trench 301, a second insulating film 330 that is formed on the first electrode 320, and in which a groove is formed in order for a part of the first electrode 320 to be exposed, a second electrode 340 that is formed on the second insulating film 330, and in which a groove is formed in order for a part of the first electrode 320 to be exposed, a first contact portion that is connected with a part of the first electrode 320, and a second contact portion that is connected with the second electrode 340.

A substrate 300 is a wafer of glass substrate, for instance. Such a substrate 300 is preferably made in a way in which one side of the substrate 300, to be more specific, a back surface with respect to the drawing process, is formed to be thicker by certain amount through an additional grinding or a Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) process. The substrate 300 that is thicker is referred to a buffer layer in the embodiments. The substrate 300 is composed of an active region (X) where a semiconductor device is formed in the form of a trench transistor cell, and an edge region (Y) where contact portions, that is, contact patterns, configured to transfer a voltage to a semiconductor device are formed.

According to an example, trench 301 is formed in the active region (X) and the edge region (Y) of the substrate 300, which is classified into a main trench and a sub-trench. That is, this example provides that the trench formed in the active region (X) is a main trench and that the trench formed in the edge region (Y) is a sub-trench.

In particular, a first insulating film 310 is formed on the substrate 300. That is, a first insulating film 310 is formed on the entire surface of the substrate 300. In addition, in an example, the first insulating film 310 is formed at the surface of substrate 300 that includes the bottom surfaces and side walls of the trenches 301 that are formed in the active region (X) and the edge region (Y) of the substrate 300.

The first electrode 320 is formed on the first insulating film 310 in the bottom portion of the trench 301. Also, the first electrode 320 is arranged at bottom portions of the trench 301 formed in the active region (X) and the edge region (Y) of the substrate 300.

The first electrode 320 includes a part (A) that is electrically connected with a first contact portion. The part (A) of the first electrode 320 is formed to have a thickness greater than other parts of the first electrode 320. Preferably, as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, a part (A) of the first electrode 320 is formed to be greater than total thickness of other parts of the first electrode 320 and the second electrode 340 that is stacked on the other parts. In this manner, a part (A) of the first electrode 320 is formed to follow a groove formed in the second insulating film 330 and the second electrode 340, so as to protrude further than the second electrode 340 stacked on the other parts of the first electrode 320. By protruding in this manner, the part (A) of the first electrode 320 is easily connected with the first contact portion.

According to this example, as regards a trench transistor formed in the active region (X) of the semiconductor device, a trench MOS transistor having two electrode structures inside a trench 301 is applied in the example. The first electrode 320 is arranged at a bottom portion of the trench 301, and is referred to a shield electrode or a field electrode. Such a shield electrode plays a role of altering an electric field structure inside a semiconductor device, according to a voltage transferred to the shield electrode.

Subsequently, a second insulating film 330 is formed on the first electrode 320 and the substrate 300. As illustrated in the example of FIGS. 4 and 5, the second insulating film 330 comprises a first contact hole 331 configured to electrically connect a first electrode 320, such as a shield electrode with a first contact pattern 361 by exposing it to the outside, at a sub-trench region in an edge region (Y) viewed at one direction of the semiconductor device. For example, such a direction is direction B-B′ or direction C-C′. In particular, a part (A) of the first electrode 320 is formed to protrude further than other parts. Further, a part (A) of the first electrode 320 is exposed at the second insulating film 330, such that a groove capable of being connected with a first contact pattern 361 is formed.

The second insulating film 330 is formed using the same substance as that of the first insulating film 310. According to the example, a first contact hole 331 is referred to as a first contact portion. However, a first contact hole 331 is also used in other examples to refer to an element that further includes a first contact pattern 361 that contacts a first electrode 320, such as a shield electrode, through the first contact hole 331. Thus, such a second insulating film 330 insulates a first electrode 320, such as a shield electrode, and a second electrode 340 that are formed inside trench 301.

A second electrode 340 is formed on the second insulating film 330. That is, a second electrode 340 is formed on a surface of the semiconductor device in which the second insulating film 330 is formed. A groove is formed in the second electrode 340 in order for a part (A) of the first electrode 320 to be exposed.

Referring to FIGS. 3 to 6, a groove having certain size is formed in the second electrode 340 of FIG. 4 in order for a part (A) of the first electrode 320 to be exposed. Since a groove is formed only in one portion of the second insulating film 330 and the second electrode 340, it is to be appreciated that an additional groove is not formed in a second electrode 340 of a sectional view illustrated in FIG. 6. That is, as illustrated in the plan view of FIG. 3, a groove is formed only in one region of the second electrode 340, among all regions.

According to the present disclosure, a semiconductor device enables a region overlapped between a first electrode 320 and a second electrode 340 to be minimized, according to the aforementioned configurations.

A third insulating film 350 is formed on the second electrode 340. The third insulating film 350 includes a second contact hole 351, in order to mutually connect a second contact pattern 363 with a second electrode 340, in the edge region (Y). In an example, the second contact hole 351 is formed simultaneously with a first contact hole 331 on the second insulating film 330 that is exposed to the outside viewed at one direction of the edge region (Y), and is formed using an additional process. In this manner, the present disclosure does not have any limitations for a method of forming a contact hole. Nevertheless, a contact hole in accordance with the examples is potentially formed in an open line form to thus reduce a resistance as the contact extent between each electrode and a contact pattern increases.

Additionally, first and second contact patterns 361, 363 are formed on a third insulating film 350 of the active region (X) as well as a second insulating film 330 and a third insulating film 350 of the edge region (Y), in order to be electrically connected with a bottom electrode through first and second contact holes 351, 353. In an example, a source electrode of the active region (X) is formed simultaneously with formations of the first and second contact patterns 361, 363. An example may offer advantages if the first and second contact patterns 361, 363 and the source electrode are formed using a metal substance having conductivity. Also, in an example, the first and second contact patterns 361, 363 in the edge region (Y) are used as a voltage receiver configured to receive a voltage, and the first contact pattern 361 in such an example is electrically connected with a source power.

In an example, the first contact portion and the second contact portion are arranged in one direction of the substrate 300. That is, as illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 6, the first and second contact portions may be arranged in one direction of the substrate 300.

A part of the first electrode 320 that is positioned at a bottom portion of the first contact portion is formed in the trench 301 of the substrate 300, with the first insulating film 310 sandwiched. Thus, in this example, a part (A) of the first electrode 320 positioned at a bottom side of the first contact portion does not overlap with the second electrode 340.

Further, the second electrode 340 positioned at a bottom side of the second contact portion is formed on the surface of the substrate 300, with the second insulating film 330 sandwiched. Thus, in this example, the second electrode 340 positioned at a bottom side of the second contact portion does not overlap with the first electrode 320.

Further, in another example, a Local Oxidation of Silicon (LOCOS) layer 302 is additionally formed between the second electrode 340 positioned at a bottom side of the second contact portion and the substrate 300. In this example, the LOCOS layer 302 is formed to have a width greater than the second electrode 340 that is stacked on an upper surface of the LOCOS layer 302.

By additionally configuring a LOCOS layer 302 in the examples as described above, capacitance between gate-drain is reduced and by so doing, an overall AC characteristic of the device is improved. As a result, the semiconductor device performs better.

In an example, the first electrode 320 and the second electrode 340 are composed of polysilicon. Polysilicon, also referred to as polycrystalline silicon, is a silicon material including small crystals known as crystallites. Polysilicon is used as the conducting gate material in metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) and complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) processing technologies. Also, in other examples, the first electrode 320 and the second electrode 340 are composed of materials such as titanium dioxide (TiO₂) or cadmium sulfide (CdS). Respective appropriate electrode structures of the present examples are available to those skilled in the art and are considered to be within the scope of the present examples.

According to the present examples, there is provided a semiconductor device in which doping layers such as an N++ layer having high concentration, an N-layer having low concentration, a P type layer, a P+ type layer having high concentration, where the layers are positioned at a bottom of the substrate 300, are formed through the performance of an additional process, in order to form a semiconductor device on the substrate 300. After forming an additional epitaxial layer on a substrate 300, these doping layers of examples may be, for example, an N++ layer having high concentration, an N-layer having low concentration, and a P type layer that are formed on the epitaxial layer. A trench 301 in accordance with the examples is formed after such the doping process, and is formed of an N++ layer having high concentration and a P+ layer having high concentration for formation of a drift region before forming a third insulating film. With respect to these features, the examples have no limitations for a method of forming such a doping layer of a device, and appropriate approaches may be used to perform the doping. In one example, the doping layers are formed by selectively doping and spreading of a dopant.

Furthermore, a semiconductor device in accordance with the examples potentially also includes a drain electrode that is formed at a bottom surface of the substrate 300. In an example, such a drain electrode has a certain thickness after passing through a chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) process against a bottom surface of a wafer. Chemical-mechanical polarization is a process involves pressing wafers into rotating pads in the presence of certain slurry blends that facilitate removal by chemically aided nano-scale abrasion. For example, the drain electrode is formed using the same substance as that of other electrodes. The drain electrode potentially further includes an implant layer that is used in a P type collector, as a way to implement a P type implant between a substrate 300 and the drain electrode and thus implement a baking process for constructing the semiconductor device.

Through the configurations set forth above, according to the examples, there is provided a way of constructing a semiconductor device so that it is capable of preventing a decrease of IGSS characteristic of the semiconductor device, which would otherwise cause the occurrence of certain issues as discussed above. The configurations accomplish this feature by minimizing a region where a first electrode 320 and a second electrode 340 in trench 301 overlap.

Further, by minimizing a region where a first electrode 320 and a second electrode 340 overlap, an absolute difference between the regions due to the overlap is lowered, such that the ability to perform a subsequent process, such as a photo process, is facilitated.

Further, by reducing an absolute difference between the regions, an overall thickness of photoresist can be lowered and by so doing, a degree of agglomeration of a semiconductor device can be elevated by comparison with alternative semiconductor devices.

Unless indicated otherwise, a statement that a first layer is “on” a second layer or a substrate is to be interpreted as covering both a case where the first layer is directly contacts the second layer or the substrate, and a case where one or more other layers are disposed between the first layer and the second layer or the substrate.

The spatially-relative expressions such as “below”, “beneath”, “lower”, “above”, “upper”, and the like may be used to conveniently describe relationships of one device or elements with other devices or among elements. The spatially-relative expressions should be understood as encompassing the direction illustrated in the drawings, added with other directions of the device in use or operation. Further, the device may be oriented to other directions and accordingly, the interpretation of the spatially-relative expressions is based on the orientation.

The expression such as “first conductivity type” and “second conductivity type” as used herein may refer to the conductivity types such as N or P types which are opposed to each other, and an example explained and exemplified herein encompasses complementary examples thereof.

While this disclosure includes specific examples, it will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made in these examples without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims and their equivalents. The examples described herein are to be considered in a descriptive sense only, and not for purposes of limitation. Descriptions of features or aspects in each example are to be considered as being applicable to similar features or aspects in other examples. Suitable results may be achieved if the described techniques are performed in a different order, and/or if components in a described system, architecture, device, or circuit are combined in a different manner and/or replaced or supplemented by other components or their equivalents.
